Mauricio A. Font and Carlos Riobó, eds.

The Handbook of Contemporary Cuba is an up-to-date and comprehensive survey of the highly dynamic field of Cuban studies. It offers the latest research available from a broad array of disciplines and perspectives, with contributions from leading scholars from the United States, Cuba, Europe, and other world regions. The handbook’s general introduction and its section introductions survey the key literature in the field in relation to rapidly changing events on the island and in global political and economic affairs. The book also addresses new developments in civil society, including human rights, and presents economic models and forecasts as well as analyses of the recent, pivotal Sixth Congress of the Communist Party of Cuba. Mauricio Font (Prof., Queens) serves on the doctoral faculty in sociology.
